It's Snow Joke! :-O

I think I might be right when I say that my local council have gritted the road every night this week! But tonight they haven't!

Good to see Kingston council manage to keep the record up. When i was younger it was a running joke if they grited the road it was unlikely to have frost or ice that night If they didn't we knew that we should get the sledge out

Gritting the roads is for ICE.....not SNOW

Possibly out in the sticks but in London we normally measure the snow in mm's possibly nano metres so the salt on the roads keeps them clear

Us courier drivers have got to go out in this snow! Please send me some ski's so I can get home!

Not quite....snow is extremely low density, and so when it lands very little is in contact with the ground.....therefore also not the salt. Only when it is churned up by traffic and mixed in will it work.

I'll take your word for it, see so little snow being a Londoner i was almost as excited as the missus normally the snow lightly covers the ground and then gone by the time you have blinked. We have a beautiful green near us and we were the first to go there this morning to take pictures etc and the missus upload on her beloved Friendster before the sun was fully up

I then decided to work from home, as i felt i should follow the recommendation to stay of the roads. Jeez how many property shows on BBC 1 in the morning so dam boring almost made me start working Luckily i found the remote without moving from my chair so didn't need to take such drastic action.

You know that's for the best!

Oh, and the world is FLAT, and anyone who disagrees will burn at the stake.......(Mancs will burn regardless of views )

That's the right attitude to have methinks!
